Focus on classical and quantum analogues for gravitational phenomena and related effects [PDF]
, 2012 Hawking's prediction that black holes are not black but radiate has been one of the intellectually most influential results of theoretical physics, but Hawking's theory has not so far been testable. Recent developments in analogue models of gravity might

Interpretation in quantum physics as hidden curriculum [PDF]
, 2010 Prior research has demonstrated how the realist perspectives of classical physics students can translate into specific beliefs about quantum phenomena when taking an introductory modern physics course.

Student perspectives in quantum physics [PDF]
, 2008 Introductory courses in classical physics are promoting in students a realist perspective, made up in part by the belief that all physical properties of a system can be simultaneously specified, and thus determined at all future times. Such a perspective

Interpretive themes in quantum physics : curriculum development and outcomes [PDF]
, 2011 A common learning goal for modern physics instructors is for students to recognize a difference between the experimental uncertainty of classical physics and the fundamental uncertainty of quantum mechanics.

The principle of general tovariance [PDF]
, 2008 We tentatively propose two guiding principles for the construction of theories of physics, which should be satisfied by a possible future theory of quantum gravity.

Some trends in the philosophy of physics [PDF]
, 2011 A short review of some recent developments in the philosophy of physics is presented. I focus on themes which illustrate relations and points of common interest between philosophy of physics and three of its 'neighboring' fields: Physics, metaphysics and

Measurement of SUSY masses via cascade decays for SPS 1a [PDF]
, 2004 If R-parity conserving supersymmetry exists below the TeV-scale, new particles will be produced and decay in cascades at the LHC. The lightest supersymmetric particle will escape the detectors, thereby complicating the full reconstruction of the decay ...

How Classical Particles Emerge from the Quantum World. [PDF]
, 2010 The symmetrization postulates of quantum mechanics (symmetry for bosons, antisymmetry for fermions) are usually taken to entail that quantum particles of the same kind (e.g., electrons) are all in exactly the same state and therefore indistinguishable in

Development of quantum perspectives in modern physics [PDF]
, 2009 Introductory undergraduate courses in classical physics stress a perspective that can be characterized as realist; from this perspective, all physical properties of a classical system can be simultaneously specified and thus determined at all future ...

Symmetries and invariances in classical physics [PDF]
, 2005 Symmetry, intended as invariance with respect to a transformation (more precisely, with respect to a transformation group), has acquired more and more importance in modern physics.
